Features to know about
Confident Winter Driving on Snowy Roads: Square Links Bite Deep for Steady Grip
These Konig tire chains use square links that dig into snow and light ice to keep you moving forward when traction drops off. The smaller link size helps smooth out the ride so the chains don’t bounce or jolt as you drive. That steady grip makes the difference when the road turns slick or you’re climbing an icy grade after a storm.
Smoother Handling in Tough Conditions: Diamond Pattern Keeps You Rolling
The diamond pattern connects more of the tire to the road compared to standard ladder-style chains. This layout gives you continuous traction as the tire rotates, so there’s less slipping and smoother cornering. Whether you’re navigating a winding mountain road or an icy neighborhood hill, the pattern helps the tires hold onto the surface.
No-Hassle Setup in the Cold: Built-In Tensioners Pull Tight Without Tools
When the snow is coming down, you don’t want to fumble with extra parts. These chains tighten quickly with the built-in tensioners—just hook, pull, and go. There’s no need for rubber adjusters or special tools, and you won’t have to worry about losing tensioning pieces. The color-coded hooks and clips make it easy to see how everything connects, even in low light.
Built for Tight Clearances and Everyday Vehicles: Class S Design Fits Where Space Is Limited
Made to meet SAE Class S standards, these chains work in wheel wells with as little as 1/2" internal clearance. That low-profile design means you can still get reliable traction on cars or light vehicles that don’t have much space behind the tires. They’re a good fit for drivers who need traction help without bulky hardware rubbing inside the wheel well.
Durable Construction That Lasts Season After Season: Manganese Nickel Alloy Steel Resists Wear
Each link is made from high-quality manganese nickel alloy steel for strength and corrosion resistance. The powder-coated side chain protects wheel rims from scratches, and the sturdy metal holds up through repeated use in winter conditions. Packaged in a nylon storage bag, these chains are easy to keep clean and ready for the next storm.

Note
- Important: To determine whether you can use snow chains on your vehicle, or if chains might affect your ABS/EPS functionality, consult your owner's manual.
Confirming Your Fit
If you know your tire size, you may think you won't need to test fit your new chains. But there are a lot of variables that can affect whether chains will fit your specific tires, including your tire type, the amount of air pressure in the tire, the amount of tread wear, and the tire manufacturer.We recommend that you order chains as early in the season as possible to give yourself plenty of time to test fit the chains and reorder if needed. This way, you won't be stuck out in the cold later with snow chains that don't fit.
You can test fit these chains in your garage or driveway, but you'll want to wait until there's snow on the ground to actually drive with them. Likewise, if you're out in the snow and come across bare pavement, you'll want to pull over and remove the chains. These chains can cause damage to the bare pavement, your garage floor, or your vehicle if they break from the wear of riding on a harsh surface.

Shipping was very fast, the tire chains had a hard plastic case, which is great. Visually they look great, brand new, no hardware is damaged, it all fits together properly by hand. I haven't checked the fit yet, I will update my review if they don't fit.

I used these chains for the first time to get me home after work when winter storm Jonas hit the east coast. The snow was so deep that I only had trouble when the snow started to pick my car off the ground. I made it all the way home with these chains but did notice a few links broke during the 30 minute drive home. I wasn't going any faster than 20-25 mph on the way home. I couldn't go any faster given how bad the roads were. These chains were easy to install and I did drive a few miles before stopping and retightening them as per the instructions. The chains can be used again even with the broken link but I will have to repair them in the spring or buy new ones next year.

The snow chains arrived quickly. They appear to the correct size for my tires for my vehicle, but I had difficulty in getting them to fit properly. However, there are two factors to consider: 1) I recently purchased new tires, which are at the maximum tire pressure and 2) I have never used snow chains before, so my experience in installing them was lacking. So, now I will await the net snowfall to try them out on the road for real.

Worked out as expected. I had the opportunity to use them three times during the wintersnowfall. I had difficulties the first time as I was inexperienced in using chains, but once I got them on, they worked very well. Te 2nd & 3rd time went much better in putting them on.

Product was a perfect fit. Arrived quickly. Problem I had was clearance. While they say “will fit 2013 VW Jetta” and they do, they do not clear the inner parts sufficiently. They do say needs 12 mm clearance.
So unfortunately I will need to return these.

I was unsure about the best chains for my car but thanks to Sal M, I got the right set at a terrific price. Delivery was earlier than I expected,only four days. I followed the video instructions and installation was a snap. I have ordered from etrailer before and have never been disappointed. Thanks again for the prompt service.

Nice set of snow chains to avoid being stuck if surprised by bad road conditions. It takes some practice to learn how to properly mount them so make sure you practice before actually needing them! Also pay attention when putting them back in their box after usage: they should be well dried to avoid rust and carefully folded to prevent tangling.

Pleased to say I can finally review these tire chains. I bought them as a precautionary measure before going up to Vermont for a week earlier in January. Used them extremely briefly up there and thought they were solid.
Fast forward a couple weeks to now, and we received 20+ inches of snow in about 24 hours in central Massachusetts. Got to and from my friends' house for the Pats AFC Championship game while the snow was dumping no problem. No need to dig my car out, no need to concern myself with which roads had been plowed or not, and no need to avoid hills in either direction. I never thought my FWD wagon with 6" clearance and all-seasons would eat snow like this. The chains are peace of mind to the highest degree. At this point I think they should plow the roads less!
Mounting is pretty easy too, but they require some finagling to get them in place when you're doing it out in the snow. Getting them off is more annoying because you have to blindly find the connector on the backside of the tire, but it's not bad with some patience.

This is an awesome review Andrew, thank you for sharing it. Sounds like those chains seriously showed up when the snow did. Getting through 20+ inches without worrying about hills, plows, or digging out is exactly the kind of peace of mind we love to hear about. We also appreciate the honest notes on install and removal. Snowy installs are never glamorous, but it’s great to hear they’re manageable with a little patience. Stay safe out there and enjoy that winter confidence. How was Vermont?

I have to say I'm extremely satisfied with these tire chains!! They're so aggressive and work well with my corolla. My at is front wheel drive and the weight of the motors sits perfectly in line with the tire/chain combination. They bite and dig right in the snow and ice. My drive way is very long as you can see and quite dangerous in snowy conditions. I've had numerous times where I've had to slip the chains on and it was a breeze. They're so easy to put on and off. I feel extremely confident throughout the winter season with the Thule tire chains in the back of my trunk. Thank you so much! You guys have great products going!

Do NOT buy these chains if you own a Tesla, and I cannot recommend etrailer.com at this point either. I purchased these tire chains Item #TH01221102 for my Model 3 from etrailer.com on based on their recommendation and videos. When I received the chains I test fit them and they seemed to fit and looked fine on the tires. I did not have to actually use them for several months. After a single use, one of the center join links opened before finishing a 15 mile trip at 25 mph. I replaced it with a repair link. I made a 2nd short trip at 25 mph and another center joining link came open after less than 30 minutes of 25 mph driving. I replaced that link with another repair link and it's happened a 3rd time. I contacted etrailer.com because clearly something is not right. etrailer.com referred me to Pewag and Konig to file a warranty claim. All good, I filed a claim and Konig's response was they would honor the warranty claim ONE TIME ONLY (5 year warranty is now VOIDED) because these are not the right chains for my vehicle, and Konig sent me a brand new set of chains, which is nice, but does me no good since they NOT the right chains. I came back to etrailer.com to try to address this further, and at first they blamed me and said I bought the wrong size (I didn't) and provided a link to the correct ones. That link included a listing for the same chains and size I bought. I emailed back and pointed out to them that this was not my fault, and they acknowledged it. I asked them to please do the right thing and allow me to exchange the brand new "wrong" chains which they recommended and sold me, for the correct ones which Konig recommends. I stated I would be willing to pay for a cost difference. Unfortunately, they have not responded to me or any subsequent emails. Not a good experience.
I am attaching an image of where these chain links fail. Red highlights are the failing links. Green are repaired links. I'm pretty sure this is why Konig says don't use these chains on a Tesla.

Chains fit 2022 F350 Tremor with 285/70R18 tires. A little difficult to drape around tire evenly due to the deep lugs/siping on Dura Trac tires but not bad. Plenty of clearance to brake and suspension components. Get some parachute cord to place over the tensioning chain on the rear tire to protect the hub. Have not used in snow yet. A bit pricey but high quality and fairly easy installation both front and back. I also have Konig chains for my Subaru Outback that are excellent. Etrailer customer service is always excellent.

These chains fit my 2019 Hyundai Kona EV (2WD) well and were just the thing add traction in deep snow after the recent blizzard. They are easy to put on (though the weather and sand/salt on the roads wet, cold and dirty to deal with) and they work very well to boost traction. They are a great value and I would highly recommend!

- Which Tire Chains for 2003 Honda Accord EX 2.4 With 205/60/16 TiresCable-type tire chains offer a cost-effective option for the driver who needs tire chains only on occasion. One such product is the Glacier Class S Tire Chain for the 2003 Honda Accord, part # PW1034. This DOT-compliant chain set offers a low-profile design ideal for vehicles with limited wheel-well clearance and uses rugged case-hardened steel roller construction.

view full answer... - Is There A Time Limit for How Long Tire Snow Chains can Be Left InstalledSnow chains can be left on as long as they are needed and there is snow on the ground. You do not want to use them on dry pavement though as that will wear them out quickly and damage the road most likely. Also, you have to go pretty slow with chains installed (around 35 mph max), so that could be an incentive to take them off as well.

Before purchasing snow tire chains, you will want to check with your vehicle owners manual to see if it is acceptable to use snow tire chains.

A snug fit for tire chains is important. If they are a little big and fit loose they will not perform properly and can come off the tire.

Glad they showed up in good condition, Drew! These can be heavy and that case makes everything lot easier to deal with. Definitely let us know about the fitment when you try them. And I do recommend trying them before you need them. It makes the whole process a lot easier. Are you headed into the mountains?
